Caboodle Cat Habitat on Treehugger

 

We always like to take these opportunities to explain just how green we be. In short…

  • Caboodle is made from 40% post consumer materials!
  • All scrap is recycled locally as well as the soy based inks we use in printing!
  • The plant that manufactures Caboodle also makes the raw corrugated. No materials shipping = super low carbon footprint!
  • Our shipping facility is a short trip south of our manufacturer!
  • Caboodle is 100% recyclable, including the packaging!
  • Caboodle is naturally fun for cats because cats love corrugated!
Thanks everyone for supporting of our American Made and sustainable business!

Aahhh…the sweet smell of corrugated!

I just cracked open a fresh Caboodle today to donate to our local SPCA and was refreshingly reminded of Caboodle’s wonderful odorless appeal. Yep, no off gassing! Because Caboodle is made with natural materials it emits no odor other than the one cats love – sweet smelling corrugated!

We have always wondered (and conducted a little research) why it seems to take some time and catnip coaxing to get a cat to use a traditional carpeted condo. I’m now thinking it might be off gassing from fire retardants, plastic fibers, dyes and adhesives that are not appealing to cats? Mmmmm? 

Meow for now!
